UNIX and UNIX-like OS
To create an image file, make use of “dd”. This is one of the original UNIX
utilities and is included in every UNIX-like OS (UNIX, Sun Solaris, and Linux).
To create a CD-ROM image file, copy the contents of the CD-ROM to a file. You
can use the following command:
dd [ if=/dev/cdrom ] [ of=/tmp/cdrom.image ]
dd reads the entire disc from the device /dev/cdrom, and saves the output in the
specified output file /tmp/cdrom.image. Adjust both parameters exactly to your
needs (input device etc.).
Drive Redirection
The Drive Redirection is another possibility to use a virtual disc drive on the remote
computer. With Drive Redirection you do not have to use an image file but may work
with a drive from your local computer on the remote machine. The drive is hereby
shared over a TCP network connection. Devices such as floppy drives, hard discs,
CD-ROMs and other removable devices like USB sticks can be redirected. It is even
possible to enable a write support so that for the remote machine it is possible to
write data to your local disc.
Figure 6-9 Options of Drive Redirection
Please note that Drive Redirection works on a level which is far below the operating
system. That means that neither the local nor the remote operating system is aware
that the drive is currently redirected, actually.
